Current Volunteer Opportunities

Loaves & Fishes Centers could not exist without the help of more than 450 volunteers every weekday.

Our volunteers help prepare and serve meals to seniors in 34 different meal sites throughout Multnomah, Washington and Clark counties, as well as deliver nearly 3,000 Meals-On-Wheels to homebound elderly every weekday.

Volunteers are needed every weekday to assist with production for 5,000 daily meals. Shifts are available Monday through Friday as early as 5:30 a.m. and as late as 2:30 p.m. Tasks include helping with pre-plating meals, assembly line work, bakery assistance, dishwashing and food prep

"Meals On Two Wheels" is a program designed to promote the use of bicycles for our daily Meals-On-Wheels deliveries. It is part of the daily meal deliveries provided by Loaves & Fishes Centers, The Meals-On-Wheels People.

Loaves & Fishes Centers delivers 3,000 hot meals to homebound seniors throughout the metropolitan area every weekday. We depend on volunteers to make those deliveries. Due to a recent change in how background checks are handled for volunteer drivers, we can use ONLY those volunteers who have already undergone the background check. If you have a four-wheel drive vehicle and will be available to help deliver meals to homebound seniors during inclement weather, please complete the background check now and be added to our list of approved inclement weather drivers!
